About the Licensing register

Use the Licensing register to ensure staff, supplier and contractor licences and credentials are checked and related evidence is uploaded.

Workflow

The Stage Navigation Bar displays the workflow stages that the licensing check will follow once scheduled. 

  1. Licensing details - In this stage describe the scope of the licence, define the instructions, link related contracts and other documentation, and assign who will complete and close the licensing check. These details only need to be set once as the information is automatically copied to the next occurrence of the check in the schedule. Note: all licensing checks assigned to a user or business contact, will automatically be halted by LogiqcQMS when the user's profile / business contact's profile is made 'inactive'.       
  2. Action stage - In this stage the Action officer completes the licensing check. Progress notes can also be made and records can be attached. 
  3. Close stage - In this stage the Approval officer will close the licensing check or delegate further action if required.

When you navigate to the Licensing register the following tabs are displayed:

In progress Displays licensing checks currently in progress and assigned to a user.
Closed Displays all current, closed and future licensing checks including those which have been skipped.

Licensing details form tabs

The licensing details form comprises two tabs:

Description Contains the details and schedule of the licensing check.  For a full description of the details form and programming a schedule, click on the following article: Schedule a licensing check
Series Displays all the licensing checks in the series as per the schedule. (see Form series component description below)

Series tab

All the Licensing checks of the series are listed including closed, current and the next upcoming checks not yet assigned.  The list also shows any records attached to the licensing check.  

Tip:  The Series tab is a valuable tool for quickly assessing an licensing schedule. It provides a comprehensive overview of completed licensing checks, the current status of open tasks, and the upcoming licensing check in the series. By utilising this tab, you can identify overdue licensing checks and be sure that you are working on the correct task in the series. 


Licensing Schedule

This component enables you to schedule the licensing check and set the frequency. You can program once off Licensing checks or program an series of checks with a recurring schedule.

Closing and skipping a Licensing check.

The Schedule component also allows you to close the current licensing check task and skip to the next in the series.  This is useful if a check has been missed and the next check in the series has been generated.  Learn more.

You can also choose to close and halt the licensing schedule which will close the current licensing check and prevent future tasks in the series being generated.  Note:  If other licensing check tasks in the series have been generated, they will need to be closed off.  Learn more.
